Our Sculptra® Procedure
Sculptra® is an injectable treatment made from poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), designed to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. Unlike dermal fillers that add immediate volume, Sculptra® works gradually to restore structure and firmness from within. It’s especially effective for individuals experiencing volume loss in the cheeks, temples, or smile lines.
